Absolutely. Let's be honest, nobody wants to imagine a version of The Jam in the 90s, in their 40s, putting out mediocre music in comparison to their best years, which inevitably happens to even the best of them. Weller had the foresight to understand that's how it goes. Same as The Smiths I suppose. The Beatles too. There might be other reasons those bands ended too, but they also resisted money to resurrect the bands. So I think at least some members of these bands were totally aware of preserving the legacy too.

The one great thing about The Jam splitting when they did was/is that they were/are a fantastic, disciplined band frozen in time....a perfect band.

THE best drummer of all time. I don't care about anyone else. Perfection in timing but always musical in feeling.
